I went with a gloss, easy to do there are write ups about it. Most important thing is prep work, and make sure when taping off reflective parts that you dont rip the chrome plating off.

Here are some pics, my headlights have a haze that does NOT want to come off.

Might aswell spend the extra money and get the real system, I got mine for like 550 or something, and it only had 3k miles on it, the sound is un matched.

I love the way mine sounds, I get compliments all the time. I run a $50 flowmaster muffler from ebay (came with the tips) and a cut out. But honestly I think the corsa's look better than any exhaust set up except fo CME which is impossible to find the valence

Well if your fast, there are some actual corsa tips for sale in the texas classifieds for 100 dollars, which is a steal.

have you thought about a billet grille??? i think it would look good and add a lil more of the polished/stainless look that your wheels add to the car alreayd or even the black billet grille would look good. other then that, the slp ss grille would be the way to go.
